Re: POLL: What are you looking Forward to most in
I'll probably be flamed for saying this, but I'm really looking forward to the show's cancellation in S3. (I don't consider myself a 'basher', but those ratings are plumeting, and they aren't coming back up)

You can't look forward to something that's not happening.

I've seen a couple of posts saying that they look forward to ENT being cancelled for one reason or the other. I don't think it's a good idea. I think cancelling the series will have a negative effect on the Trek franchise because, whether we like it or not, ENT is part of the Star Trek universe now. I guess the best thing to do would be to repair the damage that the first two seasons may have made by planning the way the series will go and writing better episodes for S3. There's hope yet for ENT--that is, if B&B finally see the light and distance themselves from the writing.

I don't think it would be a negative effect on the franchise if it's cancelled. Far from it, I believe that Enterprise is already having a negative effect on the franchise, but more importantly the fans of Trek. If enterprise were cancelled, the franchise would be no worse off than it was after Voyager, and back then, Trek more than anything needed a break to re-invigorate and come back stronger.
Still following every ENT spoiler, forum response, and episode with a keen eye, eh, Stewey?.

Let's assume that it was cancelled in the middle of S3 and that a new Trek series is shown a couple of years from now, do we just pretend that ENT never happened? I think I'd prefer trying to fix the series first. If S3 still doesn't work out, then the producers can cancel it. I don't think we should give up so easily. The premise of the show is good and I think it's got potential. The writing is just lousy.
Don't worry, Stewey. I'm not trying to convince you or anyone. I just want to give my two cents' worth.

I don't have a problem with the raw premise of exploration in an era before the federation and all the frills assiciated with it. The problem is the execution of the premise interms of continuity, and plausibility not to mention the storytelling and bad acting.
The premise has the potential to tell different and unique stories, but instead they are relying on the same stories they are telling in the 24th century. To me this series is season's 8,9 and 10 of Voyager with different visuals.

I vote for Trip/T'Pol intimacy because it be one more story arc to follow. This relationship will bring one more dimension to their characters and make them more interesting at least for me. I'm looking forward to Trip/T'Pol intimacy.

If ENT is canceled than it is the death kiss for TREK, mainky because they'll be no one in Paramount that will take a chance on toucjing it for at least a decade.....
the TOS-->MOVIES-->TNG evolution that we saw through the last 20 years (excluding DS9 & VOY) will not repeat it self.
Berman maybe an ass, but if he goes down, i'm afraid he's taking TREK with him....
For my very first post, can I just say that I am looking forward to a number of things in Season Three, but one of my main ones would be some reaction from Earth.
Seven Million people have died and at the hands of 'aliens'. There must be some people on Earth who see all aliens as the enemy, or put forward the theory that, until the Vulcan's came along, Earth was never attacked. If Vulcan's were attacked on Earth it would be an added stress for the Enterprise crew who work with, and trust, a Vulcan. And T'Pol has thrown away a great deal to be with the human ship, a 'Vulcan's go home' movement might make her question that commitment.
Just my lowly POV.

Welcome to the board. I hope you brought body armor.
You make a very good point. I said something similar about the MACOs a while ago: They should be very polarized in their attitudes toward T'Pol... some should be openly hostile toward her. The idea that the alien attack on Earth would increase the level of xenophobia in general is certainly very likely.

Well, I am in favour of the Franchise taking a break anyway. I believe that is what should have been done instead of forcing some badly produced, badly written prequel down fans throats and expecting them to like it. It's true that there is no need for the dumbing down of Trek, but even if Trek was as good as DS9 again, would the public really pick it up in the way TNG did? The oversaturation of trek in the 90's has done more harm than good.
Believe me, I don't want Trek to die at all, but I think a rest would do the world of good for the franchise and for the fans alike. I would have hoped 6 or 8 years after Voyager we could have had a new series set after the 24th century, or maybe some other new concept instead. i've always thought that wile Trek is a personal favourite of mine, it should not be the flagship of any network, nor even a network show at all, but the constant demand for more trek by the network has participated in the oversaturation of the franchise.
Paramount's own greed is destroying trek.
Story arcs are certainly the right thing to go for in a Trek series, however B&'s definition of it is somewhat different, and I am skeptical of B&B's plans for the Xindi lasting the entire season. There is hidden somewhere in the past two seasons an arc, the TCW, but what has become of it, nothing. Going by their past record, this Xindi arc will be a recurring theme rather than a true arc, probably used as a crutch for neilsen spikes during the sweeps.
